2100 CQ jobs in limbo as State and Feds fight over $130m

2100 POTENTIAL jobs in central Queensland are in limbo as Australia's and Queensland's leaders fight over $130 million.

A spokesman for Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce has refused to confirm if the Federal Government's "verbal offer" to double their funding commitment for Rookwood Weir to $260 million was still on the table.

The project is expected to create 2100 jobs and give water sustainability for Gladstone's current industry, future projects and central Queensland's agriculture sector.

Member for Capricornia Michelle Landry revealed the additional $130 million offer was made during the Council of Australian Governments meeting in June.

Gladstone MP Glenn Butcher said he wasn't aware of the offer - but he was happy to cop the latest "hurry along" from the Federal Government.
